Sarcophagus representing a Dionysiac Vintage Festival, A.D. 290-300. Additional Info: A lively pastoral scene decorates this oval-shaped sarcophagus. It lacks a lid, but is carved on three sides in high relief. Two lions' heads with rings in their mouths flank the central panel depicting a mythological representation of the Vindemia, a rural Roman wine festival.
